Is Mouse Gesture Events safe?

Clean risk

This extension lets you control tabs, navigation, and scrolling with right-click mouse gestures.

Hold the right mouse button, move in a direction, and release to trigger a browser action such as opening or closing a tab, switching tabs, refreshing, or moving through page history. It also supports gestures for scrolling to the top or bottom, reopening the last closed tab, pinning or duplicating the current tab, and closing or minimizing windows. The description notes that it does not run on internal browser pages or the Chrome Web Store.
